Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.


Item 2.03

Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.


From time to time, Mr. Alexander Long, the former Chief Executive Officer of Success Exploration & Resources, Inc., advanced our company funds for general working capital.  These advances were non-interest bearing and due on demand.  At July 30, 2013 we owed him $56,000.  On July 30, 2013, in connection with the change of control of our company described later in this report, Mr. Long sold his debt to HSC Holdings LLC.


On July 30, 2013 we entered into a Debt Exchange Agreement with HSC Holdings LLC pursuant to which we exchanged the note it had acquired from Mr. Long for a promissory note in the principal amount of $56,000 due December 31, 2013.  This note, which bears interest at the rate of 6% per annum due on maturity, is unsecured.


The Debt Exchange Agreement and form of promissory note are filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, to this report and the descriptions of the terms and conditions thereof are qualified in their entirety by reference to these documents.


Item 5.01

Changes in Control of Registrant.


On July 30, 2013 Messrs. Alexander Long and Jonathan Long, then executive officers and directors of our company, and Stuart William Craig, a former member of our Board of Directors, entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with HSC Holdings LLC and three other unaffiliated purchasers, including Matthew H. Sage.  Under the terms of this agreement, HSC Holdings LLC acquired 2,220,880 shares of our common stock, representing 49% of our outstanding common stock, from Messrs. Alexander Long and Jonathan Long for aggregate cash consideration of $211,843.88.  HSC Holdings LLC used its working capital to fund the purchase of these shares.  


As a provision of this transaction, Messrs. Alexander Long and Jonathan Long resigned as officers and directors of our company and Mr. Sage was appointed an officer and director, both as described later in this report.  


As we were a “shell company” as that term is defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) immediately prior to this change of control, we are required to provide the following information in this report:

FORM 10 DISCLOSURE


Item 1.

Business.


Following the change of control, our company remains a “shell company” as that term is defined in the Exchange Act.  We are accelerating our efforts to acquire a business or assets on which to base our future business activities.  We are actively seeking to acquire assets or shares of an entity actively engaged in business which generates revenues, in exchange for our securities.  This discussion of the proposed business is purposefully general and is not meant to be restrictive of our virtually unlimited discretion to search for and enter into potential business opportunities. Management anticipates that it may be able to participate in only one potential business venture because we have nominal assets and limited financial resources. This lack of diversification should be considered a substantial risk to our stockholders because it will not permit us to offset potential losses from one venture against gains from another.


We may seek a business opportunity with entities which have recently commenced operations, or which wish to utilize the public marketplace in order to raise additional capital in order to expand into new products or markets, to develop a new product or service, or for other corporate purposes.  We may acquire assets and establish wholly-owned subsidiaries in various businesses or acquire existing businesses as subsidiaries.  We anticipate that the selection of a business opportunity in which to participate will be complex and extremely risky.  Due to general economic conditions, rapid technological advances being made in some industries and shortages of available capital, management believes that there are numerous firms seeking the perceived benefits of a publicly registered corporation.  These perceived benefits may include facilitating or improving the terms on which additional equity financing may be sought, providing liquidity for incentive stock options or similar benefits to key employees, providing liquidity (subject to restrictions of applicable statutes), for all stockholders and other factors.  Potentially, available business opportunities may occur in many different industries and at various stages of development, all of which will make the task of comparative investigation and analysis of such business opportunities extremely difficult and complex.


The analysis of new business opportunities will be undertaken by, or under the supervision of, Mr. Sage, our President.  Mr. Sage will be the key person in the search, review and negotiation with potential acquisition or merger candidates.  We intend to concentrate on identifying preliminary prospective business opportunities which may be brought to our attention through present associations of Mr. Sage.  In analyzing prospective business opportunities, we will consider such matters as:


the available technical, financial and managerial resources;

working capital and other financial requirements;

history of operations, if any;

prospects for the future;

nature of present and expected competition;

the quality and experience of management services which may be available and the depth of that management;

the potential for further research, development, or exploration;

specific risk factors not now foreseeable but which then may be anticipated to impact our proposed activities;

the potential for growth or expansion;

the potential for profit;

the perceived public recognition of acceptance of products, services, or trades; name identification; and

other relevant factors.



3



In implementing a structure for a particular business acquisition, we may become a party to a merger, consolidation, reorganization, joint venture, or licensing agreement with another corporation or entity.  We may also acquire stock or assets of an existing business.  It is possible that we will acquire a business or assets from an affiliate of our company.  We anticipate that any securities issued in any such transaction would be issued in reliance upon exemption from registration under applicable federal and state securities laws. In some circumstances, however, as a negotiated element of a transaction, we may agree to register all or a part of such securities immediately after the transaction is consummated or at specified times thereafter.  If such registration occurs, of which there can be no assurance, it will be undertaken by the surviving entity after we have successfully consummated a merger or acquisition and we are no longer considered a "shell" company.  Until such time as this occurs, we will not attempt to register any additional securities.  The issuance of substantial additional securities and their potential sale into any trading market which may develop in our securities may have a depressive effect on the value of our securities in the future, if such a market develops, of which there is no assurance.


Employees


As of July 30, 2013, we had one employee, Mr. Sage, our Chief Executive Officer.  Mr. Sage is involved in other business activities and it is expected he will devote approximately 90% of his time and attention to our business.  


Our history


We were incorporated in Nevada on November 29, 2005.  In April 2010 our then Chief Executive Officer transferred to us all rights he held in the Red Rupert Mining Claim. This claim, initially acquired by our then Chief Executive Officer in February 2010, was comprised of non-patented hard rock load mining claims located on federal land administered by the British Columbia Government of Canada. We never begin exploration efforts on this claim and in April 2012 we did not renew the claim.

Item 3.

Properties.


Secured Income Reserve, Inc., a related party, is presently providing office space to us for no consideration. In the future, we expect to enter into a sublease or similar agreement with this affiliate upon financial term and other conditions to be determined.


Item 4.

Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management.


At July 30, 2013 we had 4,521,000 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding which is our only class of voting securities. The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of July 30, 2013 by:

Item 11.

Description of Registrant’s Securities to be Registered.


General


The authorized capital stock of our company consists of 70,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and 5,000,000 shares of blank check preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share.  At July 30, 2013 there were 4,521,000 shares of our common stock and no shares of our preferred stock issued and outstanding.


Common stock


Holders of shares of common stock are entitled to one vote for each share on all matters to be voted on by the stockholders.  Holders of common stock do not have cumulative voting rights. Holders of common stock are entitled to share ratably in dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by the Board of Directors in its discretion from funds legally available therefor. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our company, the holders of common stock are entitled to share pro rata all assets remaining after payment in full of all liabilities. All of the outstanding shares of common stock are fully paid and non-assessable.  Holders of common stock have no preemptive rights to purchase our common stock.  There are no conversion or redemption rights or sinking fund provisions with respect to the common stock.


Preferred stock


The Board of Directors is authorized to provide for the issuance of shares of preferred stock in series and, by filing a certificate pursuant to the applicable law of the State of Nevada, to establish from time to time the number of shares to be included in each such series, and to fix the designation, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of each such series and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof without any further vote or action by the stockholders.  Any shares of preferred stock so issued would have priority over the common stock with respect to dividend or liquidation rights.  Any future issuance of preferred stock may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of our company without further action by the stockholders and may adversely affect the voting and other rights of the holders of common stock.



6




The issuance of shares of preferred stock, or the issuance of rights to purchase such shares, could be used to discourage an unsolicited acquisition proposal.  For instance, the issuance of a series of preferred stock might impede a business combination by including class voting rights that would enable the holder to block such a transaction, or facilitate a business combination by including voting rights that would provide a required percentage vote of the stockholders.  In addition, under certain circumstances, the issuance of preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power of the holders of the common stock.  Although the Board of Directors is required to make any determination to issue such stock based on its judgment as to the best interests of our stockholders, the Board of Directors could act in a manner that would discourage an acquisition attempt or other transaction that some, or a majority, of the stockholders might believe to be in their best interests or in which stockholders might receive a premium for their stock over the then market price of such stock.  The Board of Directors does not at present intend to seek stockholder approval prior to any issuance of currently authorized stock, unless otherwise required by law. At present, we have no plans to issue any preferred stock nor adopt any series, preferences or other classification of preferred stock.


Item 12.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers.


Our Bylaws provide for the indemnification of our present and prior directors and officers or any person who may have served at our request as a director or officer of another corporation in which we own shares of capital stock or of which we are a creditor, against expenses actually and necessarily incurred by them in connection with the defense of any actions, suits or proceedings in which they, or any of them, are made parties, or a party, by reason of being or having been director(s) or officer(s) of us or of such other corporation, in the absence of negligence or misconduct in the performance of their duties. This indemnification policy could result in substantial expenditure by us, which we may be unable to recoup.


Insofar as indemnification by us for liabilities arising under the Exchange Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to provisions of the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification by such director, officer or controlling person of us in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being offered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by us is against public policy as expressed in the Exchange Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.


Item 13.

Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.


This information appears in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended May 31, 2013 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 15, 2013.

Alexander Long and Jonathan Long resigned as officers and directors of our company and Mr. Sage was appointed President and Secretary.  Mr. Sage was not a party to any transaction with our company prior to his appointment as a director.  We expect to finalize the compensation arrangements with Mr. Sage during the third quarter of 2013.
